    What is wrong with adding an llm? That is not even integrates in other proton products?

    EU needs in-house LLMs

    They said it integrates with Proton Drive. Optional, but still. That is data that is otherwise strictly end-to-end encrypted, and now they're adding a "convenient" method to send it through their AI unencrypted, and they are not upfront about that.

    Proton has a problem with focus. They keep adding new things of limited value, presumably in a quest for growth. That usually doesn't end well.

    Proton is based in Switzerland. Not EU.

    Edit: Apparently that's changing.

    Because of legal uncertainty around Swiss government proposals to introduce mass surveillance โ€” proposals that have been outlawed in the EU โ€” Proton is moving most of its physical infrastructure out of Switzerland. Lumo will be the first product to move.
